Topic: Risk or regret? (2) - page 11. (Read 1739 times)

Which ever ways, I’m glad you already know that both options are very painful as they both have to do with losses and this question might make a lot of people go contrary to their believe and claims of them gambling for just fun because at the end of the day, the actual fun in gambling lies in winning.

Personally I don’t enjoy regrets and try as mush as possible not to make regrets but rather learn from every thing that happens to me so in other words, I would say, I say lessons as blessings and not regretting over them.
Whatever the case be, I think the pains of not gambling or betting on a game especially when you had the option of betting on them and definitely could afford to lose it.

regret
For me it will be a painful something for someone not to predict or stick any game that he want to gamble but after everything the game happened to be the winning one I think you will feel regret over it for you no to participate for such game what I know from this is that gambling is all about luck and opportunity so when you lack the opportunity you will not be able to win in gambling so therefore opportunity is the most important thing that I see that propell in gambling winning, so winning of gambling is not all about your prediction or your seriousness in gambling but it is all about your opportunity being achieved or obtain within a short time

I will always choose to take a risk and lose than to regret taking the risk at all especially if at the end my indecisiveness will make me lose on a winning bet or streak. What makes me a man is my ability to face my fears. Most of the time, regrets are usually as a result of lack of taking decisions which turns out to be regrets. Instead of regretting, I'll rather face my fear than allow a game or a bet pass by and regret acting on it. That's how men are born and trained to live

Missing out a bet that could potentially making yourself changing your life in terms of financial status which i could say that this one could hurt you but you could really be that easily be able to move on.
Why? You would really be mainly thinking that or convince yourself that bet isnt really that for you and there might be some other plans on which you could really be able to hit up other thing.
Thats why on the moment that you do find  that you arent that been able to bet then you could also be thinking that you havent loss something but we cant really be able to deny that you would really be
thinking of it for sometime specially if the amount is something life changing then who would be the one couldnt really be thinking off that way? Everyone wants to get rich and missing out opportunity would really be giving out that pain and regret.

As for the pain on taking a risks and bet and then lose then its something a pain on which most gamblers do usually that been able to experience. They are the ones who would really be that definitely be having that kind of
continous cycle and what makes them become addicted gambler in the end because of too much chasing up those loses and this is something that must be avoided on the time that you do play gambling.
Easy to say though but it would really be that hard to be done. This is why its really that important that you should really know on what you are doing and dealing with so that you would be able to act accordingl.
The common mistake for most gamblers is that they do become that too desperate on the moment or time that do engage on gambling.

Before a gambler takes risk he already knows that it's a 50/50 thing but the percentage of losing is not always the same as winning percentages. As you already knows that it's a risk and you have decided to do it, when you lose you shouldn't regret it because if by chance you win you wouldn't have regretted it. However it's only when you did something mistakenly and it resulted to lose that you can regret because it's not done intentionally.
What pains me most is when I didn't something unknowingly and it result to lose, nothing pains me more than that.

I feel regret is the most painful when it comes to gambling. Before gambling a gambler has already decided that he may win or not win the bet. This is understandable as the pain only lasts for some time if he risks it and loses the bet but when he gives heed to his doubt and does not take the risk, he may feel so angry knowing that he would have won if he had bet.

Regret in general is more painful than risk and I can relate so well to it.

Regret. I better do it an fail than wish I did it and won. Risk comes with a lot of learning, what does regret bring to the table ? Depression, sadness and other plethora of negative emotions. And please note, it is not just blind risk but a well thought out and calculated risk based off of thorough analysis. This calculated risk will serve as the background for the next betting experience. The most painful from my experience as a human being and gambler is regret.

When you throw "life changing amount" in there, the regret of that will be higher. It will be more if you were all but ready to place the bet and for whatever reason did not.

This cannot be compared to the risk of losing, you will never be staking life changing amounts and the brain only factors in the amount staked during a loss and the potential winning if you do not play a game. The regret will stick around longer than the pain would.

To me the most painful part will be the risk to lose because I hate losing my money. That is why I will find it so painful if I lose, but that of not taking the risk and it ending up a winning of a life-changing amount I will not regret because what ever belongs to you will always be yours. That is why I will not be sad or be in regret because I know even if I take the risk of not being lucky, I will not still win.
 
So to me is a simple situation here based on the belief I have so far in gambling and that have helped me for very long in life and will keep helping me no matter what because if you have the faith that what belongs to you will always be yours then you will find it hard to be depressed when ever you fall victim to regret. 

The pain of taking the risk of betting and then losing we often experience it maybe in every gambling session we always take this risk right? Which in the end loses everything.

But regrets like you mentioned let alone changing your life from winning this is more painful because this regret will sometimes blame yourself why not bet.

For me, both are painful to feel.

in my opinion it is more about regretting taking risks and losing, sometimes players dare to take risks, the ratio is 90/10 where they bet with great risk but the clear defeat is certain to happen. and this is done because of the urge from the emotions that overflow in themselves, therefore players tend not to be able to accept when it ends in defeat.

besides that, players who take risks usually they really hope because they are in a state of despair of course I think this is natural if it makes you feel unable to accept defeat, but it shouldn't be like that. because the defeat that occurs must be something that can be accepted well.

I think the pain of taking a bet and losing it is more severe compared to the painful feeling of regret that comes from not risking the bets, this is because when you lose, you are at the point of two thing's which is emotional disappointment a d feelings of unlucky, and at the same time losing of your money which is double bad feelings.

But the point where the game you failed to bet on won, you only feel that you have missed a chance to make the winning, but you did not lose anything, so it much better.

Considering risk and regret, which do you think will be the most painful for a gambler?

- the pain from taking a risk that they take on a bet and they lose, or the pain from regret of not taking a bet that ends up as the winning option, a life-changing amount?
